New Delhi: The hue and cry over a seminar on the construction of the controversial Ram Temple in Ayodhya grew louder on Saturday, with protesters shouting slogans outside the Delhi University's Arts Faculty. Amid protests outside the Delhi University, senior BJP leader Subramanian Swamy went ahead with the seminar where he asserted that nothing will be done forcibly or against the law. "Construction of Ram temple in Ayodhya is 'mandatory' for revival of our culture. We have started and we will not give up until it is made but nothing will be done forcibly and against the law. We have full faith that we will win in the court," he said in his inaugural address at the two-day seminar. Claiming that former prime minister Rajiv Gandhi had promised him of support for the construction of Ram Mandir in Ayodhya, Swamy appealed to Congress to come forward and support the cause. Zee News
